The Page/364 Bridge is at mile 42.8, which is just over three miles from downtown St Charles.

You can find bike racks at these businesses on Main St: Lewis & Clarks Restaurant, Touring Cyclist, St Louis Bread Co, Caffe Tostare. Also at the pavilion in Riverside Park (near mile 39), and near the green caboose.

I've never heard of any crime problems. You're certainly safer from cars by being on the trail.

Officially, the trail is only open from sunup to sundown. Doubt that this is enforced though.

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has a glossy brochure which includes a map of the trail. They will send you one if you call them: 800-334-6946 or 660-882-8196.
